Ok he literally released a song TODAY called “Afilando Los Cuchillos” (“Sharpening the Knives”) in which he threatens to burn down the government and defends the act of vandalism
How do #anarchist s deal with disruptive people? I've seen the intentionally disruptive taken to one side by someone who effectively sacrifices themselves and absorbs their efforts instead of letting it spread to the wider group. Are there other techniques?
talking about "not crossing the amazon picket line" is fun symbolic action and all, but everyone probably "scabbed" because pretty much every website, app, point of sale, etc. (including your masto instance) is likely using AWS
we are still at a point where people are shocked company X is actually company Y
(goodreads = amazon, whatsapp = FB)
meanwhile, amazon is literally monopolizing the infrastructure so even our "decentralized, federated, coop run" stuff is going through them
The media is lying.
#WillemVanSpronsen didn't hurt anyone and didn't target cops.
He destroyed ICE transport vehicles.
Unlike the right wing murderers of Heather Heyer and 9 Charleston churchgoers, Willem was given an extrajudicial execution by Tacoma Police.
Rest in power.
Fwd from Haymaker Gym, Chicago on the death of anarchist, antifascist Wilem Van Spronsen who attempted to burn immigration police buses to sabotage deportation enforcement at NWDC in Tacoma, WA (run by GEO Group):
"Sometimes our love, rage, and grief hit a breaking point & we do things that feel right even though they aren’t strategic. I don’t know what #WillemVanSpronsen was feeling in his last hours but my guess is that he desperately wanted to end the horror of fascist camps *right now*."
I love their love please let this book not break up my heart by the end

"If the members of Antifa actually wanted to effect political change and counter the aims of the Proud Boys, they could put down the milkshakes and, say, register people to vote."
"Members of Antifa beat a small, gay, Asian-American journalist in Portland this weekend. Brave! "
